“I felt like the more I was hanging out with you the more I was losing the chance of reconciling with her,” Luyendyk told a shocked Kufrin. “We left Peru and I didn’t want to be as honest with you about how conflicted I was.”

Colton tried to fight for her and even told her that they didn’t need to get engaged, but she chose to leave.
